Cost of living is so shit here that most people can't afford to retire at that age anyway. There might be some older Gen-Xers who complain, but they're not exactly known for protesting.

Malaysian police are also asking Interpol to help them investigate a comedian in New York over a joke she made about Malaysia. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-65894721

It's also a touchy subject for a lot of the players (like Lyon) who played with Phil Hughes.

They have a sprint qualifier session before the race, essentially just a shortened version of regular qualifying.

For people out of the points the gamble might have helped. Definitely worked for George.

For Hulk, I think he put too much into his tires at the start, he probably would have finished out of the 8 if he stayed on the inters.

Yellow Tbar, I think

Add to that lazy directors/creators who think they can fix it all in post, and classist ones who think if it sounds good on their super expensive equipment it doesn't matter what the average person has available.

Similar things happen with visuals, that's partly why you get over use of dodgy CGI and overly dark scenes.

As for me I use subtitles because I live under a flight path across the road from a mechanic. It's either that or rewind every ten minutes.

I don't think it was confirmed, and it was a while ago I saw it. But (alledgedly) the reason he turned down the options with too little pay, is that they had to beat the amount that McLaren was paying him not to race.

Agree, he wouldn't be the first choice regardless

Also, I believe part of the reason Danny isn't racing this year is his contact with McLaren, he would lose out on millions of dollars if he raced this year. The specifics aren't known, but supposedly even racing as a reserve driver will cost him.

The Aussies are going to have a lot of trouble getting 10 wickets in the 4th innings without Lyon. If Lyon doesn't come back, I don't see them winning this test.
